Re: advice for divorced transfer install

My dad used divorced 205's is a couple 4x4 conversions quite a few years back. He used the dodge crossmember in the first one and had alot of problems with the u-joints wearing out in the driveshaft between the transmission and transfer case.
He built a brace for it later and it seemed to solve the u-joint wear problem.

The second conversion he didn't have a crossmember so he built one out of square tubing. When he did this one he made the crossmember wider, (longer fore and aft in relation to the frame), and never had any problems with it.
